This was therefore an unusually odd gig for me, in that I recognised the names of both the acts and even know some songs by them but I didn&#8217;t actually recognise a single song played on the night!<\/p>\n<div class=\"flickr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/plingthepenguin\/15181026390\" title=\"Tanya Donelly by Margaret, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3839\/15181026390_a1b870713f_m.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" alt=\"Tanya Donelly\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/plingthepenguin\/15364554291\" title=\"Tanya Donelly by Margaret, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3920\/15364554291_7980155309_m.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" alt=\"Tanya Donelly\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Tanya Donelly was the support act, and was the reason we had tickets &#8211; J has been a fan for 20 years or thereabouts.  She used to be in Throwing Muses, then Breeders then Belly before doing solo stuff.  This was in the nature of a farewell tour for her, I think, so played songs from across her career. I know one Belly song pretty well (Feed the Tree) &#038; recognise one or two more, but she didn&#8217;t play any of those ones.  It didn&#8217;t matter tho, even tho I couldn&#8217;t tell you what any of the songs were I did enjoy what she played.  And she has an amazing voice.<\/p>\n<div class=\"flickr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/plingthepenguin\/15181206487\" title=\"Throwing Muses by Margaret, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2945\/15181206487_d6cb970b01.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" alt=\"Throwing Muses\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p>I wouldn&#8217;t&#8217;ve thought I knew <i>any<\/i> Throwing Muses songs, but J pointed out that Bright Yellow Gun is on one of my compilation albums so I do know that rather well.  I just didn&#8217;t know who did the song.  Of course, they didn&#8217;t play that although I gather it did come out as an encore somewhere else on the tour.  They were high energy &#038; rocky, not music to stand still to \ud83d\ude42  Tanya joined them on stage towards the end of the main set for a couple of songs, too.<\/p>\n<div class=\"flickr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/plingthepenguin\/15180962039\" title=\"Throwing Muses by Margaret, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3920\/15180962039_f56b8a4662_m.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" alt=\"Throwing Muses\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/plingthepenguin\/15180962459\" title=\"Throwing Muses by Margaret, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3843\/15180962459_23b3376184_m.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" alt=\"Throwing Muses\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Overall a good gig, despite the slight strangeness of not knowing the songs!
